lirik lagu passing through a screen door – the wonder years
[intro]
cigarette smoke dances back in the window
and i can see the haze on the dome light
i’m conjuring ghosts on a forty-hour ride home
and they keep asking me what i’m doing with my life
while my cousins go to bed with their wives
i’m feeling like i’ve fallen behind
[verse 1]
well, the highway won
i’m listening to traffic reports one on one
coming quietly undone
i was born to run
away from anything good
an escape artist’s son
sun-drenched pavement in my blood
the first thing that i do when i walk in
is find a way out for when sh-t gets bad, and
[chorus]
i’ve been looking for
tears in the screen door (tears in the screen door)
i’ve been waiting for
another disaster (another disaster)
[verse 2]
well i’m terrified
like a kid in the sixties
staring at the sky
waiting for the bomb to fall
and it’s all a lie
what they say about stability
it scares me sometimes
the emptiness i see in my eyes
and all the kids’ names i’ve ever liked
are tied to tragedy
and i don’t want my children growing up to be
anything like me
[chorus]
i’ve been looking for
tears in the screen door (tears in the screen door)
i’ve been waiting for
another disaster (another disaster)
and i was kinda hoping you’d stay
i was kinda hoping you’d stay
[bridge]
i keep a flashlight
and a small knife
in the corner of my bed stand
i keep a flashlight
and the train times
but you wouldn’t understand
how could you understand?
jesus christ, i’m twenty-six
all the people i graduated with
all have kids
all have wives
all have people who care if they come home at night
well, jesus christ, did i f-ck up?
[chorus]
i’ve been looking for
tears in the screen door (tears in the screen door)
i’ve been waiting for
another disaster (another disaster)
and i was kinda hoping you’d stay
i was kinda hoping you’d stay
i was kinda hoping you’d stay
